I always tell myself to never go to the store hungry.... but sometimes.... well.... I jus don't listen! This trip, which was actually with the purpose of just getting the super deals was a bit derailed by the semi-sale on Oreos and Fig Newtons. Seriously, the Princess and I had both been lamenting that there was nothing at the house to satisfy our sweet tooth, so I had planned to indulge in a single package of Birthday Cake Oreos.... but they had both the chocolate and vanilla kind! AND Fig Newtons were on sale too.... so... I indulged.
The really cool thing about this trip though was the amount of items I got completely FREE. The Nutrigrain Fruit & Crunch Bars, the two packages of Yakisoba Noodles and the 4 Lady Speed Stick Deodorants were all complete free after sales and coupons. And the Publix TP was only a penny!!! I just LOVE free stuff!
Anyway, this is how I did:
8 International Delight Coffee Creamers (yes, I know I have issues)
4 Progresso Recipe Starter Sauces
2 Yakisoba Noodles
2 Oreos
1 Fig Newtons
1 Doritos
1 Nutri Grain Cereal Bars
1 Nutri Grain Fruit & Crunch Bars
1 Publix Toilet Paper (Penny Item!)
Spent: $22.67
Saved: $46.13 or 67%
Wow. Totally gotta love free or almost free items! Like you, I KNOW I should never go to a store when I'm hungry, or if I dont have a list or have forgotten it. That's when bad stuff happens.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I knew I was taking a risk going in there hungry and going to the cookie aisle hungry.... but OMG -- have you HAD those birthday cake oreos? Wow. YUM.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you did good!
